In an unexpected twist on social media, Young Thug found himself embroiled in a feud with a fan over comparisons to fellow rapper Playboi Carti. The hip-hop star recently dropped a hint about his forthcoming album, igniting a lively exchange online.
On March 27, Young Thug teased his new project, potential his first since his release from jail, on X (formerly Twitter). ‘Yall mfers goin have to beg me to drop this shit nocizzy,’ he tweeted to his eager followers.
Not everyone was impressed, though. A user clapped back with, ‘U NOT CARTI LIL BRA,’ pointing to Carti’s famously delayed releases. Thugger, known for his sharp replies, hit back with a cheeky, ‘I wonder who’s couch you’re on tweeting this.’
Thug’s retort quickly caught fire, getting over 100,000 likes. The fan, seemingly overwhelmed by the response, issued an apology, praising Thug as a ‘trailblazer’ and acknowledging his significant influence on the music scene.
They said, ‘You are undoubtedly BIG bra, and there is no one who can take away the impact you’ve made on the game.’ The fan admitted their words were thoughtless and expressed regret for undermining Thug’s achievements.
Meanwhile, speculation is running wild about Thug’s album. He attended an NBA game, where he was spotted with a Miami Heat jersey featuring ‘UY SCUTI #5.’ Some think ‘Uy Scuti’ might be the album’s title. This Instagram account, which follows only Thug, adds to the rumors.
Adding fuel to the fire, Thug tweeted, ‘KING SPIDER THE BIGGEST STAR,’ suggestive of themes or titles. Whether this is a teaser for fans or part of his album’s rollout remains to be seen.
While fans eagerly await Young Thug’s next album, the rapper’s online antics keep them buzzing. With each clue, speculation heightens, and the anticipation for his new music grows. Thug’s ability to stir excitement and engage with fans proves his enduring influence in hip-hop.
